Who is going to actually pay for all this AI junk once all the investors decide it’s time to stop “disrupting the market and gaining share” and time to start charging people what it actually costs to run (plus margins)?
Like, I use ChatGPT and Copilot and shit because it’s free, but if it were $5/month I’d happily walk away.
Why are news outlets reporting on what some hallucinating AI says? To legitimize it. As people use it more they’ll become more reliant on it. It’ll be no different than, "just Google it "
But they aren’t only going to do this to make a profit. It’s more than that. It’s about controlling the flow of information. Once people are reliant on it they’ll adjust algorithms and black list information that doesn’t benefit them.
Legitimately AI is trying to position itself to control information and by extension the realities of its users. And that is priceless.
I hate how we let them re-name it distruption, we should go back calling it what it is. Using their vast wealth to comit blatant market manipulation using anti-competative practices.

My half thought conspiracy: The actual hope is to get people so reliant on AI that the fee is secondary.
You’re already starting to see this in news articles where, "Chat gpt says Trump’s physical not possible," or that “gork calls elon top misinformation spreader.”
